A New Pressure/Rate Deconvolution Algorithm to Analyze Wireline Formation Tester and Well-Test Data

Abstract: The deconvolved pressure change and its natural-logarithmic time (or Bourdet) derivative are very important for wellbore/reservoir system identification in pressure transient interpretation because they represent the constant-rate drawdown response of the system. In recent years, the use of pressure/rate deconvolution has increased considerably due to significant improvement of the mathematical algorithms. In this paper, we present a robust deconvolution algorithm based on a weighted Euclidean norm in the Tikh… Show more

“…Identifying good choices for these hyperparameters is a challenging problem, and various methods have been proposed -see for example Cumming et al (2013), Levitan (2006), Pimonov et al (2009), von Schroeter et al (2004. In single-well deconvolution, the purpose of these hyperparameters is to balance the contributions of the four components of the error function in such a way that leads to good quality deconvolutions.…”

“…In contrast to von Schroeter et al (2004), we do not set R = 1 and adjust the remaining parameters to compensate as this make the variance estimation much more challenging and less robust. These weights can be easily generalized by vectorizing the scaling factors to act as weights for individual or ranges of data points as in Pimonov et al (2009), thus allowing the flexibility to emphasize good matches at particular wells or during particular times, e.g. build-ups.…”

“…Recent SL techniques developed for large-scale applications can include at least one injector and one producer well (Behrens et al, 1999;King et al, 1998;Kulkarni et al, 2001). In formation testing, injection or production sources are located in one single well (Pimonov et al, 2010;Seifert et al, 2005).…”

“…In a subsequent paper by Levitan et al [21], valuable suggestions were made for practical applications of the pressure-rate deconvolution. Pimonov et al [22,23] further modified the deconvolution algorithm of von Schroeter et al [18,19] and Levitan [20]. The modification was done by introducing a more general objective function in the Levenberg-Marquardt minimization procedure.…”

“…The modification was done by introducing a more general objective function in the Levenberg-Marquardt minimization procedure. This algorithm was successfully applied by Pimonov et al [22,23] to deconvolution of drillstem test data and wireline formation tester data. Recently, a totally different approach for solving the nonlinear Equation (1) was proposed by Ageev et al [24], where the authors used an iteratively regularized modified Levenberg-Marquardt method.…”
